What is Fididel? $1 Million Richer.

I've seen this one crop up several places today, but most recently from Dean Takahashi at VentureBeat. Its being described as a stealth startup and its called Fididel, named after a Mexican restaurant the CEO went to this one time. The CEO is Hal Wendell and he is a 'veteran' of companies such as Hewlett-Packard and Nortel. This $1 Million is in addition to it's $761,250 already previously raised from private investors.The website is sparse, and indicates very little of what it plans to do or how it plans to do it (though it bills itself as 'the future of e-commerce').

The only thing I can find on the web indicating any further details is that an employee called Kelly Williams is trying to recruit powersellers currently boycotting eBay to give the system a shot (with a free trial for six months - no listing fees!).

We give no reccomendation to the site (as we haven't seen anything but their splash page), but if you want to take Kelly up on her offer, you can email her.
